Objective To investigate the prevalence of lipids disorder in patients with diabetes and the relationship of lipids disorder with sex and hypertension.Methods Totally 2 545 diabetic patients were analyzed for their different lipids disorder based on the clinical data.Results In the group of diabetic patients,1 663 cases were found with lipids disorder (65.3%),and females and males with lipids disorder were 69.6% and 61.9% respectively (P

0.05).The scales of subtests including arithmetic,digit span,picture completion,block design and coding of children in CAE group were significantly lower than those of control group(Pa

Tumor necrosis factor ?(TNF ?) is a potent proinflammatory cytokine. In human, TNF ? gene is located within the highly polymorphic major histocompatibility complex(MHC) region on chromosome 6p21.3. TNF gene cluster contains many polymorphisms including microsatellites and single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs).Many of these polymorphisms were found to be in linkage disequilibrium with HLA class Ⅰand Ⅱ alleles. Some of the TNF ? gene polymorphisms were found to influence TNF ? production in vitro , for example the 308SNP. Many studies have shown that this SNP and others within the TNF ? gene associate with different inflammatory conditions. Whether this phenomenon is due to the direct influence if the SNP in question and/or due to linkage disequilibrium with other polymorphisms within the TNF ? gene or the HLA system is still controversial.

One hundred elderly patients with hyperthyroidism were enrolled in a paired design study.The outcome of ~(131)Ⅰand antithyroid drug(ATD)treatments was examined after 2 years.The results showed that ~(131)Ⅰcould be recognized as the safer,more convenient and effective treatment than ATD for the elderly patients with hyperthyroidism.

Objective: To investigate the effects of different extracts of Smilax china L on the activity of ovarian cancer cells. Methods:Solvent extraction method was used to extract the active ingredients of Smilax china L. , and CCK-8 assay method was ap-plied to detect the influence of different Smilax china L. extracts (0, 50, 100, 150 and 200μg·ml-1 ) on the survival rate of ovarian cancer cells including low invasiveness A2780 cells and high invasiveness HO-8910PM cells. At the same time, the status of the two kinds of ovarian cancer cells at different time points (24, 48 and 72 h) was observed. Results:The IC50 of N-butanol extracts (SCR-B) on HO-8910 and A2780 ovarian cancer cells was 47. 5 μg· ml-1 and 69. 2 μg· ml-1 , respectively, and that of ethyl acetate ex-tracts (SCR-E) on A2780 and HO-8910 cells was 147. 9 μg· ml-1 and 166. 0 μg· ml-1, respectively. Smilax china L. extracts had the inhibition against both A278 and HO-8910PM ovarian cells in a dose-and time-dependent manner. Conclusion:The inhibitory activity of SCR-B against ovarian cancer cells is stronger than that of SCR-E, and SCR-B has stronger inhibition against A2780 cells than against HO-8910 cells. SCR-B has better inhibition against ovarian cancer cells.

Objective To investigate the value of urine L-type fatty acid-binding protein (uL-FABP) and uric neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL), and predict the value of poor outcomes (injury progression,dialysis,or death within 7 days ) in critically ill patients with early acute kidney injury (AKI) at time of nephropathy consultation. Methods One hundred and twenty-five patients with evidence of the AKIN criteria stage1 AKI were enrolled in this study. At time of nephropathy consultation , urinary samples were collected. The levels of uL-FABP and uNGAL were measured. Each marker was assessed for its predictive value using an area under the receiver operator characteristic curves (ROC-AUC) to predict AKI prognosis. Results Twenty-eight patients developed poor outcome. It was 0.81 in ROC-AUC in uL-FABP , in,which it could be improved to 0.83 when combined with APACHEⅡscore (0.75 in ROC-AUC). The ROC-AUC of uNGAL was 0.66, in which it could not impove its predictive power significantly when combined with APACHEⅡscore. Conclusion Among critically ill patients with early AKI , uL-FABP provided an independent and prognostic power when combined with APACHEⅡscore and the level of uL-FABP at time of nephropathy consultation helps to predict clinical outcome in critically ill patients with early AKI.

This study was aimed to explore the mechanism ofZi-Bu Pi-Yin Recipe (ZBPYR) on autophagy and endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) to improve spleen-yin deficiency diabetes-associated cognitive decline (DACD). Rats were randomly divided into the control (cont) group, the diabetes (DM) group, the spleen-yin deficiency (pi) group, the spleen-yin deficiency diabetes (piDM) group, and the spleen-yin deficiency diabetes + ZBPYR treatment (ZBPYR) group. The expression of microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3 (LC3Ⅱ), inositol-requiring enzymeα (IRE1α), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) were observed by western blot. The results showed that the expression of LC3Ⅱ in the DM group, pi group and piDM group decreased compared with the cont group (P < 0.05); and the expression of LC3Ⅱ of the ZBPYR group increased compared with the DM group and piDM group (P < 0.05). Compared with the cont group, the p-IRE1α of the DM group and piDM group, as well as p-JNK1 in the pi group and piDM group were increased (P < 0.05). The p-IRE1α and p-JNK1 of the ZBPYR group were decreased compared with the DM group and piDM group (P < 0.05). It was concluded that ZBPYR improved spleen-yin deficiency DACD by regulating autophagy and ERS.
